Method
- Line a baking sheet with baking paper. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over a low heat. Add the honey, coconut cream and vanilla extract and stir until combined.
- Remove from the heat and stir through the rice crispies and desiccated coconut.
- Set aside for around 20 mins to cool a little, then tightly pack a portion of the mixture into a sprung ice cream scoop. Slightly dome the ball at the top and gently release; carefully place onto the lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
- Chill for 30-45 mins to set. Once set, serve in the waffle ice cream cones.
- Tip: For an extra treat, dip the rims of the cones in the melted chocolate, add the rice snap balls and put into a mug to set.
